> Must have a deep love for Python and the ability to come up with Pythonic solutions to problems.

I think you should give candidates a heads up on what your screener test cares about. I've been using Python for almost 20 years and I have never needed to solve the problems presented because I specifically avoid those kinds of situations.


Thank you for the feedback, we'll take it under consideration.


From the hiring page:

> at the end of the month, a bot summarizes the time tracked by a staff member and multiplies it by their hourly rate to figure out the compensation.

So this is not a regular employment contract, I guess? Can you maybe elaborate a bit on how the contract is structured?


We sign a framework cooperation agreement with the contractor and agree on the expected number of work hours, typically full-time (6-8 hours daily). However, everyone tracks their time using a time tracker, and at the end of the month, we settle based on the actual hours worked, not the estimated ones. The more hours you work, the more you get paid.


Interested in role as a python software with 6 years experience, but the tasks are hard to do, this kind of tasks are not normal.


I absolutely love the landing page of careers.reef.pl/ . Maybe I'm just a noob, but I've never seen a website look like a terminal emulator before.


Slightly off-topic: What open-source projects do you recommend someone to go through to increase their Python knowledge/expertise?


Amazing career page! Too bad that I only have one year of python experience (overall 7yrs with React, Node and have been a founder before with an exit)


Thanks!


I love the website

Do you provide health insurance?
